    3. Daris, Thank you for the additional details on your George W. Nevil. Do you have something which indicates he might have moved to Hickman Co., KY, or were you just speculating? Such a move could really tangle some lines since there was already a George Washington Nevill (wife Rachel Killebrew) from an entirely different family who lived in that county <g>. I don't suppose you have ever come across a Martin Nevil anywhere in your line, have you? We have one list member, Corrine, who is looking for a William Nevil/Nevels b. in TN. I wonder if your Bill would match up with any of her information. Jan At 12:08 AM 2/21/99 -0600, you wrote: >No problem, Milton.
